All space launches should be done from the Arctic Circle region because of how much cooler they are.

Slightly disappointed to learn there is not a single ‘Whitehaven Mansions’ on Google Maps. If you search for it, what shows up is Florin Court in London. That’s the building where Poirot was shot.

So, the thing is: if launch times and schedule of military strikes are not actually classified there should be no problem in posting them on Twitter and TikTok.

So the consensus is that the signal thing was either deliberate or a massive screw-up.

We shall postpone fighting on the beaches, we shall keep an eye on the landing grounds, we encourage everyone else, should the right circumstances come, to fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall eventually retreat to the hills; we shall never explicitly surrender.

The U.S. Air Force has already flown multiple prototypes of the new F-47 fighter, which is part of the Next Generation Air Dominance program that includes uncrewed loyal wingman drones and new adaptive engines. It is planned to be cheaper than the F-22, with a larger fleet and an export version.

Important points from the USAF statement on #NGAD 1. Multiple F-47 prototype X-planes have been flying for 05 years. 2. Timeline: 'The F-47 will fly during President Trump’s administration.' 3. Cheaper: 'Compared to the F-22, the F-47 will cost less and be more adaptable to future threats.'

‘The F-47 will have significantly longer range, more advanced stealth, be more sustainable, supportable, and have higher availability than our fifth-generation fighters.’
